Oh that reminded me of a time, when we were on a dairy farm, we had contractors in to cut and bale hay. Our shed, basically a roof on four posts, still had a few bales in it and the contractors stacked the new hay on top of the old. The shed was surrounded by an electric fence to keep the cows out...
A few days later there was a huge explosion. The heat generated by the new hay had caused the old hay to ignite. We rushed outside to find the roof of the shed lying flat on the ground and all the cows were tucking into all the hay that had been 'distributed' beyond the fence... Milk production over the next few days was better than ever... Needless to say, we never used 'those' contractors again... lol

tbird I am looking forward to playing it. johnno56 Before I read your post, the words cow, hay, and explosions just stuck out. I made sure to read it carefully just to make sure I was understanding it correctly.

Yeah. It just 'sprang to mind' when tbird mentioned, "we are putting up hay like crazy"... Funny how that happens. The two main thing I think of from the late 60's. The Moon landing and the exploding hay shed... lol

I have heard of that happening, not very often. Someone from around these parts had something similar happen. That's quite the exciting year back then for you.
